Chapter 665: Buying a Skill Book
Although George has never done business, he is definitely not a fool and has absolutely no shortage of life experience.
All the people who knew that he was going to do business, the first person George went to contact was his friend, the patrol captain Luo Bin in the territory, Luo Bin and George grew up together, and the relationship between the two was very good, although George became a farmer, Luo Bin became a soldier, and became a patrol leader in the territory, but the relationship between the two did not weaken because of this.
After finding Luo Bin, George made it clear to Luo Bin that this matter could not be said to have been done by Ai Wen, because Evan was still too young, so George said that he had entertained a passing monk, and this mysterious monk had taught George the ability to barbecue, so George could make delicious barbecue.
This idea was told to George by Aven, and George couldn't think of it himself.
George said his idea, he wanted to rely on the barbecue craft to make money, but he was worried that his business would cause trouble, so he wanted to cooperate with Luo Bin to make money.
Luo Bin doesn't have to pay, he doesn't have to contribute, he only needs to use Luo Bin's name, and Luo Bin can take away two layers of profits.
This money is the protection fee that is realized.
Luo Bin didn't expect that his friend was still thinking about opening a barbecue restaurant to make money, and Luo Bin was a little worried about George's craftsmanship, but after Luo Bin ate the barbecue brought by George, Luo Bin was completely relieved about George.
With the taste of barbecue brought by George, this business is sure to be hot.
Luo Bin agreed to George's cooperation proposal, but he disagreed with what George said, no need to pay, George is his friend, Luo Bin is unwilling to take advantage of his friend, and in Luo Bin's opinion, George's family is too small, relying on George's little capital, what business can he do, at most he can only rent a small store in the town, which is not something Luo Bin wants to see.
So Luo Bin proposed that he also pay for it, and in Luo Bin's opinion, his weight is still too small, if he goes to the town to do business, it is not enough to just rely on his own face, and he also needs to attract people to join him.
Luo Bin is friends with the sheriff in the town, and the so-called county magistrate is not as good as the current management, so if the town is doing business, it is the best thing to pull the sheriff up.
The sheriff is equivalent to the head of the local police station, not to mention that the position is not high, but the real power is very large, and he has great authority over the local security.
As long as the sheriff is brought in, the business will be easy to do in the future, and there is no fear that others will destroy their business.
However, the sheriff is an outsider after all, so he can't be asked for shares, and give the sheriff a share, which is given for free, and the sheriff doesn't need to pay.
Luo Bin took 30% of the shares, but this share was not taken for nothing, all the expenses were paid by Luo Bin, and George was invested in technology and occupied 60% of the shares.
George did not agree to the share distribution plan, feeling that Luo Bin had suffered a loss, but under Luo Bin's persuasion, he finally agreed to the plan.
Later, it was also under Luo Bin's threading that he met Han Sen, the sheriff in the town, and with the help of the sheriff Han Sen, he rented a storefront in the town.
While George was busy with the storefront, Evan hired people from the territory to grow spices in the fields.
These spices grow very well, and they grow very quickly, which is also related to the local environment, the fertility of the land is too strong, so the planted spices can be harvested so quickly, and a batch of spices is harvested in just one month, and then processed by Ai Wen, and is made into a finished seasoning and sent to the town.
With this batch of finished seasonings, the barbecue business can also start.
This barbecue restaurant is also the first barbecue restaurant in the town, and with the opening of the barbecue restaurant, many customers have followed.
Although barbecue is not a rare thing, delicious barbecue is relatively rare.
In particular, their barbecue is very delicious, much better than the barbecue in other bars and restaurants, and the aroma is also incomparable to the rest of the barbecue.
It is also for this reason that the business of the small shop, after the initial opening, is very good.
The hot business made George and the others laugh from ear to ear, and the town's sheriff Han Sen was also very happy, he didn't care too much about this barbecue restaurant, after all, his shares in the barbecue were not too much, and there seemed to be too many barbecue restaurants, every household would barbecue, where did you need a special barbecue restaurant, the barbecue restaurant you cared about would not have any good business.
But after the barbecue business became popular, Han Sen knew that he was wrong and looked away.
This barbecue restaurant is really different, the barbecue meat in this barbecue restaurant is very delicious and delicious, so the business is also very good.
Although Sheriff Han Sen only has a 10% stake in the store, this stake can bring him a huge return.
While Sheriff Han Sen was happy, he regretted it very much, regretting that he had lost his eyes and didn't see that this barbecue restaurant would be so popular, otherwise, he would definitely get a greater return if he joined in at the beginning.
It's not that Han Sen hasn't thought about increasing his stake in the barbecue restaurant, but with Luo Bin on the other side, then things won't be easy to handle.
Luo Bin's identity is nothing, after all, he is only a patrol captain, but after all, Luo Bin is also a subordinate of a noble lord, and it depends on the owner to beat the dog, so this face is also to be given.
However, as the business of the barbecue restaurant is getting better and better, and the income is getting higher and higher, Han Sen is getting more and more excited.
This barbecue restaurant in the town is simply a golden rooster that can lay golden eggs, how could Han Sen not be impressed.
If this barbecue restaurant is your own, how much benefit can you get?
As soon as he thought of this question, Han Sen's heart was already hot, and he couldn't sit still anymore, so he hurriedly walked towards the barbecue restaurant, trying to find a way to increase his stake in the store.
Just as Han Sen's side was about to dispatch, in the territory, Ai Wen was also persuading George.
Ai Wen persuaded: "Uncle George, such a big business is not something we can do, I think it is better to deal with this matter as soon as possible, so as not to change later." ”
George has already seen the income of the barbecue restaurant, so he is naturally unwilling to give up this piece of fat, and said unwillingly: "We opened this restaurant, the way of barbecue is also what you came up with, and the spices are also researched by you, why do you want to give away these benefits, to be honest, I am really unwilling and can't figure it out." ”
It's not that George really can't figure it out, but he's really unwilling.
I didn't see the income of this barbecue restaurant before, and George was not distressed when he gave shares, but now, the business of the barbecue restaurant is getting better and better, and George knows that the profit is also because of this reason, so George will be reluctant to contribute the strategy of the barbecue restaurant to the lord.
Once this strategy is contributed, their family will lose the way to make money.
Ai Wen said helplessly: "Uncle, this is also a matter of no way, you know the situation in this world, if we are nobles, then no matter what business we do, we don't have to worry about someone looking for trouble with us." But are we aristocrats? We're not aristocrats, we're just ordinary people, we don't have the power to protect ourselves at all, and now, the better and better our business is, do you know what will happen if it continues?
"Let me tell you, there will definitely be people who are jealous of their own business, who want to take away their business, and wait for them to take away our business as scheduled, we might as well take the initiative and get a greater benefit for ourselves. ”
"Ten birds in the forest is better than one bird in hand, we don't need to occupy an uncontrollable forest, we only need to guard a few of the fruit trees. If you want to make money, there will be opportunities in the future. ”
George sighed secretly, it wasn't that he didn't understand this truth, but he was just unwilling.
George thought for a moment and asked, "Then what are you going to do?"
Evan said: "I am going to contribute the method of cultivating seasoning to the lord, and the method of roasting the meat will also be said, but I only need the lord to give me a promise, that is, the barbecue restaurant in the seven towns can only be operated by me, and I will leave the rest of the place alone." ”
With these seven small towns for us to do, I think it's definitely enough for us to make money.
Evan really knows too much about business, he has no way to do business without a background, and the bigger the business, the more he needs a strong background.
In their family's situation, if they go out to do business, they will only be eaten, so he needs to borrow the name of the lord, and with this name, their family's business can be unimpeded in the surrounding towns.
Ai Wen had already thought through the details, so he also said them one by one.
After convincing George, George finally agreed to take Evan to meet the lord, but as two people, they were not qualified to meet the lord.
The two of them could only go to meet the lord's butler first, even if they wanted to meet the butler, it was not easy to see the butler, or Luo Bin came forward, found an acquaintance in the lord's mansion, and then spent money to do so, and then met the butler Robert.
The housekeeper Robert is a thin middle-aged man, don't look at this middle-aged man's appearance is very inconspicuous, but the momentum on his body is very powerful, and the housekeeper Robert's qualifications are very old, because this housekeeper has been working with the Marquis of Pross for fifty years, and is the most trusted henchman of the Marquis of Pross.
When the housekeeper Robert saw George, his expression was very indifferent, and he said lightly: "Okay, if you have anything, just tell me, I still have something to do." ”
George seemed very nervous and restrained at this time, opened his mouth, and spoke a little stammering.
Ai Wen had no choice but to take the initiative to say: "Dear Butler Robert, our family entertained a passing monk a few months ago, and then this monk left our family a secret recipe for planting spices, in the last month, our family relied on the spices planted to make barbecue, and opened a barbecue restaurant in the town, and now our barbecue restaurant business is very good, just a barbecue restaurant, and the monthly operating income is one hundred and twenty gold coins. ”
Robert, the butler, was careless at first, but when Evan mentioned that the barbecue restaurant he opened earned one hundred and twenty gold coins a month, Robert was stunned.
Although one hundred and twenty gold coins is nothing, but after all, it is just a barbecue restaurant, and it is also a nearby town, the population of the town is limited, and there are fewer rich people, but such conditions also have a good income of one hundred and twenty gold coins, if it is exchanged for a big city, then how much profit should it be.
Robert looked at the two of them and said excitedly, "What you said can't be fake, right?"
Ai Wen said sincerely: "Dear Mr. Robert, what we said is true or false, we only need to investigate to know, and there is no way to hide this. ”
Robert was right, he thought about it, there was no way for them to lie and lie.
Robert asked, "So what are you doing here today?" ”
Evan continued to say sincerely: "Dear Mr. Robert, we don't want to deceive you, we are self-aware, we are just ordinary people, we also know that there is no way to protect such a lucrative business with our own ability, so we are willing to dedicate the method of growing spices and the method of making barbecue to the lord, we only hope to be able to obtain the gift of the lord, and open a barbecue restaurant in seven nearby towns with the lord." ”
After finishing speaking, Ai Wen handed over the documents he brought with him and said, "Here are all the technical materials for spices and making barbecue, we will hand them all over to the lord, and there is also a way to open a branch, hoping to bring inspiration to the lord." ”
At first, Evan thought that he would dominate the barbecue business in the seven nearby towns, but after thinking about it carefully, he realized that it was difficult to do this, so he changed his mind and cooperated with the lord to do business.
The reputation of the Marquis of Pros is not bad, although he is not a wise and martial lord, but he is not a stingy and cruel lord, in the eyes of the people in the territory, the Marquis of Pros is still a good lord.
It was also because of this willingness that Evan came up with this plan.
Through the butler Robert, the plan was finally delivered to the lord Lord Lord Lord Pross, who also agreed to Aven's request.
The person that Ai Wen didn't expect, this lord, is really a second person, after agreeing to Ai Wen's request, he also covered all the business in the seven small towns, and all the funds were provided by him, and the shares of the two were divided in half.
With the lord's consent and financial support, barbecue restaurants were soon opened in seven small towns.
At this time, Han Sen, the sheriff of the town, had already known about the business between the lord and Aiwen's family, and finally he didn't dare to trouble Aiwen anymore, nor did he dare to mention the matter of owning shares.
The business of the barbecue restaurant is very hot, and the business of the pedestal town is also very good, even if half of the shares are taken away by the lord, the income is still very high, and after just two months, Ai Wen has saved two thousand gold coins.
And by this time, Evan finally had the money to buy a skill book. (To be continued.) )
